My eyes are extremely red/itchy & have been this way for a week & 1/2. it's not pink eye/i tried drops for that & it didn't go away. what could it be?

Probable allergy: Sounds like you're having an allergic conjunctivitis. Try an over the counter antihistamine drop like zaditor (ketotifen). If that doesn't help, see your ophthalmologist.
